Earlier today, we made mention of the fact, that the red carpet premiere for Descendants: The Rise of Red, was more than just a gathering of the cast and crew of the film.

For in the midst of poses and stories about the making of the film, the cast of the upcoming series, Wizards Beyond Waverly Place, dropped by take in the wonder of the moment.
 
Which allowed for this cast to make their first appearance together, and that’s also a big deal.

When Justin’s sister Alex brings Billie to his home seeking help, Justin realizes he must dust off his magical skills to mentor the wizard-in-training while also juggling his everyday responsibilities — and safeguarding the future of the Wizard World.
 
If anything, it was just amazing to know that worlds collided at the premiere and that fans of another beloved franchise have more to look forward to later this year, when the next chapter in the Waverly Place saga gets underway.
